  • Are there direct flights from George Bush Airport to Cancun Airport?

    Yes, several airlines provide direct flights between the destinations. Spirit Airlines, Aeromexico, American Airlines, and jetBlue provide direct flights from IAH to CUN. However, airlines like Qatar and Alaska are more sustainable because they have plastic-free programs and have banned plastic bottles. When traveling with these flights, purchase food in bulk and avoid buying unnecessary items. The airports have hotels with sustainable dishes like vegetables and grains.

  • Are there public buses near Cancun Airport to the city center?

    Several public buses operate between CUN to Cancun city center are the most sustainable way to get to the city center. ADO buses provide periodic trips into and out of the airport; one doesn't have to struggle to get to the bus booths. The bus will take you directly to Praya del Carmen or downtown ADO station. The passes don't have stopovers.

  • Which lodges are there near Cancun Airport?

    Passengers arriving late at CUN have many lodges to spend a night before proceeding with their journey. Lodges within the airport offer business-class services.

Some other one-stop options include a flight aboard Delta Airlines with a layover at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport (ATL) and a Viva Aerobus flight that includes a layover at Mexico City Benito Juarez Airport (MEX). Both of these flights add about four hours to your travel time.

  • Several airports offer flights from Houston to Cancun but choosing to fly directly into the city is more sustainable. American Airlines, Alaska, and Qatar Airlines provide direct flights from George Bush Airport (IAH) to Cancun Airport (CUN).
  • When traveling to Cancun from Houston through IAH, there are several means you can use to get to IAH. You can drive, use a taxi, or use a Towncar. However, using the bus is more sustainable. The distance between the two destinations is 20.4 miles, and it'll take about 50 minutes to get to the airport, but that depends on traffic.
  • Passengers with reduced mobility should use airlines that provide sustainability initiatives. Qatar and Alaska, for instance, have a single point to support passengers with limited mobility. Therefore, such passengers will not have to travel in their vehicles. However, an early arrangement with your airline is excellent.
